  1. Risk Matrix Purpose • quantify the level of risk existing in a technology • ensure that all milestones are focused on reducing risk • identify those milestones most important to reducing risk • communicate the reduction in risk versus time and cost General Approach • identify major technical risk areas and failure modes by technology component • assign an initial absolute level to each risk • lay out a milestone schedule • assign a level of risk reduction associated with successful completion of milestone • track risk reduction versus time and expenditures

Groups of components can also have additional risks or failure modes. Component 3 Component 1 Component 2 Each risk is assigned a weighting factor (0 to 10) based on its criticality and relative importance to component performance. Each component or component group can also weighted by its relative importance to product success.

  3. An initial, absolute level (0 to 100) is assigned to each risk based on level of confidence in preventing the failure mode at a manufacturing level. 50 75 100 0 25 key employee has demonstrated elsewhere not demonstrated by anyone, anywhere demonstrated in-house; manufacturing steps known demonstrated by others elsewhere Risk MatrixAssign Initial Risk Levels The total initial level of risk of a component is the weighted average of the risk levels of the failure modes.

  4. Risk MatrixMilestone Schedule Major project milestones (from Gantt chart) are listed. Each milestone is expected to reduce risk in one or more categories.

  5. Risk MatrixRisks and Milestones Risks and milestones are laid out in a matrix. Each milestone reduces the risk of a particular failure mode by some percentage. When a milestone is achieved, the absolute risk associated with a component falls. This translates into a reduction in the overall product risk (average of all component risks)

  6. Risk MatrixCharts For any component (and for Product Risk), Risk Reduction can be plotted vs time and milestones. Expenditures might also be plotted versus time on the same charts.
